IDF kills Islamic Jihad-affiliated terrorists in Southern Lebanon strikes
The strike appeared to be targeted at the Islamic Group's emergency and relief center in Hebbariyeh village in Southern Lebanon.
IDF combat aircraft attacked a military structure Tuesday night in the Habbariyeh region in southern Lebanon, the IDF reported.
A terrorist affiliated with an Islamic Jihad organization, Islamic Group, was in the targeted building. The terrorist reportedly had previously contributed to attacks against Israel and was killed alongside other terrorists who were located in the building.
The military branch of the Islamic Group in Lebanon is considered an extension of the Muslim Brotherhood and is known as the al-Fajr Forces, according to the N12 news site.
At least seven people were killed in an Israeli strike on Nabatieh in Southern Lebanon, Reuters reported, citing two security sources on Wednesday.
Hezbollah responded to strikes
Hezbollah responded to the attacks, saying, "The attack against Habbariyeh, which is located south of Lebanon, will not go unpunished," according to Maariv.
The strike appeared to be targeted at the Islamic Group's emergency and relief center in Hebbariyeh village in Southern Lebanon, the sources told Reuters.
